Gum Disease Treatment

Gum disease (periodontal disease) is an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth. It's caused by bacteria in plaque and tartar and ranges from mild gingivitis (gum inflammation) to more severe periodontitis, which can damage soft tissue and bone, potentially leading to tooth loss.

Our comprehensive periodontal care includes scaling and root planing (deep cleaning), antibiotic therapy, and regular maintenance. For advanced cases, we offer periodontal surgery, gum grafting, and laser therapy. Early treatment is crucial to prevent progression and protect your oral health.

Warning signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, or changes in bite. If you notice these symptoms, prompt treatment can restore gum health and prevent complications. Our periodontists provide personalized care to address your specific condition.
